JIM writes, "The 'triple certified I.E.S.' floor lamp offered by the Community Public Service Company for $7.95. In the spring of 1950, Kentucky Utilities bought several of the Public Service's operations, including the one in Columbia. The CPS Co. had succeeded Texas-Louisiana Power on the last day of December 1931 after the latter declared bankruptcy.
One of these lamps, an 'early attic' find plundered from my wife's parents, has graced our home for over forty years." Comments | Permalink
